Thanks guys. The car will not stay green but the hood I would like to keep primer. This should be very interesting to paint.

Thanks CT. Probably shouldn't have started this while I have three others on the go. : Oh well, I'll post some more pics. when I get something done.

eh up buddy,have you got anything done for an update mym8...cheers peza

 

[noname]

Not much. Just added these two slots to the turret. I will use some small diameter styrene rod to replicate a couple of smaller caliber gun barrels. I'll take a better pic. when I get more done. Thanks for the interest.

I think I know where the build is heading and I like it. Keep it up!

Thanks Steelsnail. I have been rethinking the truck box. It is a bit small. I liked it at first but then when I attached it to the car it looked okay but I wasn't thrilled with it. Stay tuned,..I may scratchbuild a box. I keep picturing it in my head.

Any update on this build yet Matt?

Not seen anything in a while and was looking forward to this coming together!

 

[noname]

Thanks Leigh. A small update.

Added a couple of guns to the turret.

I thought the driver's door better have a bit of protection.

I redid the rear frame. Made it a little longer and wider.

That is it for now. Working on the suspension now.

[Leighbo]

You're such a tease Matt!

Looking cool though mate, thanks for the update

Thanks guys, and sorry Leigh. I thought I should throw a few pics up instead of just saying I'm going to eventually throw some pictures up. LOL You guys now how it is when progress is slow.

 

[ScaleModelMadman]

I originally did not intend for this build to be too involved. But you know how things go. One thing leads to another. The styrene starts flirting with the hobby knife ...and you end with some scratched suspension.

i know that feeling. Scratch building can be fun.
